- Description
- Notice of Intent to Sole Source Notice The Department of Veterans Affairs Strategic Acquisition Center (SAC) intends to negotiate a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) sole source award to Rios Partners, LLC., a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), to provide support services for the Research Enterprise Transformation initiative which will increase integration between VHACO and Research and Development Field Offices. The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 541611 Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services is most appropriate for this requirement. The size standard is: $24.5 million. The Product Service Code (PSC) is R408 Support- Professional: Program Management/Support. In accordance with VAAR 819.7008, the determination to make a sole source award to an SDVOSB is a business decision wholly within the discretion of the Contracting officer; therefore, the requirement to ensure that offers are solicited from as many potential sources as practicable is not applicable to this procurement. In addition, 819.7008(c) further authorizes the Contracting officer to make the award without first determining that only one SDVOSB source can meet the requirement. The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is 41 U.S.C.§ 253(c)(5) as implemented by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 6.302-5 entitled, Authorized or required by statute . The applicable statute is Public Law 109-461: Veterans Benefits, Health Care, and Information Technology Act of 2006 specifically, the Veterans First Contracting Program outlined in 38 USC § 8127(c). This is not a request for proposals. The Government is not responsible for any costs associated with responding to this notice.
